    upGrad Jeet launches #JeetKeSahiMaayane campaign

    Mumbai: upGrad Jeet, a subsidiary of uGrad, has launched its latest campaign called #JeetKeSahiMaayane that puts government jobs as an opportunity for the youth of India.

    upGrad Jeet’s vision was manifested into this film by Orcomm Advertising, a full-service agency, that recently bagged the agency of record for the brand.

    “Our focus has always been at delivering quality content to our learners that in turn, helps the aspirants realise their dream of getting a government job, and we realise that we are not just helping individuals but also laying the foundation for the nation as these next-gen government employees will take the nation forward through their different roles and responsibilities,” said upGrad Jeet chief executive officer Ritesh Raushan.

    The ad film takes the case of four individuals (men and women) who burn the midnight oil, overcome countless obstacles to crack these examinations and instead of going with the popular perception work towards the welfare of the people. They are firm in their resolution to be the voice of people, help the needy, stand for the right and make their country a better place.

    “We understand the hunger that drives emerging towns and cities of India, having been their voice for more than a decade now,” said Orcomm Advertising chief executive officer Kavita Koserwal. “#JeetKeSahiMaayne brings out that spirit, the zeal unfazed by prejudices, barriers, or lack of facilities. Our message to these young aspirants is simple but stirring – believe in your power and purpose to achieve your dreams not only for yourself but also for our India.”

    SonyLIV roped in 100+ advertisers for India’s tour of Sri Lanka, Tokyo Olympics

    Mumbai: OTT platform SonyLIV has seen a three-fold increase in viewership since mid-July, it said on Monday. This growth in viewership has been attributed to a packed sporting calendar including India’s tour of Sri Lanka, and the recently concluded 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

    According to the streaming platform, more than 100 advertisers came on board for India’s tour of Sri Lanka and Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. SonyLIV reported clearing 99 per cent of the total advertising inventory on the back of tremendous support from advertisers.

    Sponsors comprised brands like Maruti Suzuki, LIC, JSW (Jindal Steel), WazirX, Vimal, Swiggy, Betway, Fresh to Home and MPL. Advertisers from various sectors like AMFI, Apple, Tata Motors, RBI, Hindustan Unilever Ltd, Amazon, Herbalife, Visa, Amul, TVS Eurogrip Tyres, NPCI, Accenture, Acer, Dafanews, CoinDCX, Abbott, Cars24, Medibuddy, Bridgestone, Raymond, Yamaha, Fastrack and GoDigit invested in the platform.

    The platform tied up with Google for their organised search results page (OSRP) to enhance consumer engagement. With this collaboration, users searched and watched their favourite team or athlete’s medal-winning performances, world record clips, medal event highlights, comprehensive day-wise India highlights, and more on Google OneBox in the form of SonyLIV VODs.

    The high-octane sports calendar continues to burn with India’s tour of England that started airing on 4 August.

    “While majority of the Euro 2020 advertisers continued their association, we boarded more than 100 advertisers. We are grateful to our partners who continue to extend support to all our sporting events. With sports consumption on the rise, we are confident of onboarding new brands for the India-England series”, said SonyLIV, senior vice president and head of ad revenue, Ranjana Mangla.

    “The association with Sony and SonyLIV has been truly outstanding – working with a team that is as passionate as JSW with regards to the Olympics has truly been a pleasure and is something we at the JSW Group hope to do again in the very near future”, said JSW Cement, JSW Paints managing director and JSW Sports and IIS founder, Parth Jindal.

    “Our association with SonyLIV as the co-presenting sponsor for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games has been very fruitful as it enabled us to connect with sports enthusiasts across the country.  For the first time in India, SonyLIV’ s coverage with 20 LIVE streams, has given the viewers a chance to watch their favourite sport and not miss any action. India has already won multiple medals and our association with ‘Tokyo 2020, India’s Top Moments’ and ‘Top Athletes’ segments helped achieve the desired engagement for the brand.  We look forward to the forthcoming sporting events on the platform”, said Maruti Suzuki executive director Shashank Srivastava.

    “Our partnership with SonyLIV India to co-present for the Euro 2020 and India Vs Sri Lanka cricket series through our #IndiakaBitcoinExchange campaign not only helped us land the right knowledge on crypto but also bust the misconceptions around crypto investments. It helped us stay true to our vision to make crypto mainstream in India”, said WazirX, chief executive officer WazirX, Nishcal Shetty.
